SIGNING OFF 🫡

That's a wrap from Villa Park as City sealed a fine win on the road following an exciting afternoon of WSL action!

Thanks as ever for following the game with us as the Blues marked Gareth Taylor's 100th league game with a victory.

See you next time! 💙👏

GARETH TAYLOR TO SKY SPORTS 🗣️

"It had a lot in the game today. From the start, we looked to try to assert our dominance and we started the game pretty well and then the first action Villa had, we don't deal with it, before you know it we're behind. 

"We showed really good character to bounce back. 

"Our performance was disjointed, but playing three games in six days was tough for us and for the girls to turn it round at half-time was great. Two moments of quality from Viv. 

"Frustrating to conceded after half-time, but again showed really good quality to come back and score goals and the score line probably could have been a little more than it was."

MIEDEMA TO SKY SPORTS 🗣️

"After the last week we had, the disappointing result we had on Sunday, the girls done amazing Wednesday tonight and after a short turnover for today.

"Being 1-0 behind after 10 minutes was really tough and showed a great deal of character to come back. 

"I just feel really good at the moment. I had a scan and I knew there was a player behind me and if I could turn her I'd be in a good position to hit it [for the second]. Once I was in the pocket I knew it would go in.

"I was just happy to put us 2-1 up and in the end, we made it difficult for ourselves, but we got the three points."
